My default.lua is corrupt

[-Pv-]

According to Eaglesoft tech support my default.lua file is corrupt.

How can I get a clean/current one?

"Start Menu - Eagle Dynamics - DCS World (or DCS World OpenBeta) - Repair DCS World"

I ran the repair and the result is the before and after files are identical (I ran them through a file compare program.)

 

Tech support claims my mic switch assignments are "customized" so do not work.

 

Here are the entries which tech support claims is incorrect:

 

{combos = {{key = 'Num+', reformers = {'LShift'}}}, down = iCommandPlane_HOTAS_MIC_SwitchUp, up = iCommandPlane_HOTAS_MIC_SwitchOff, name = _('HOTAS MIC Switch Up'), category = _('HOTAS')},

 

{combos = {{key = 'Num-', reformers = {'LAlt'}}}, down = iCommandPlane_HOTAS_MIC_SwitchDown, up = iCommandPlane_HOTAS_MIC_SwitchOff, name = _('HOTAS MIC Switch Down'), category = _('HOTAS')},

 

{combos = {{key = 'Num-', reformers = {'LShift'}}}, down = iCommandPlane_HOTAS_MIC_SwitchLeft, up = iCommandPlane_HOTAS_MIC_SwitchOff, name = _('HOTAS MIC Switch Aft'), category = _('HOTAS')},

 

{combos = {{key = 'Num+', reformers = {'LAlt'}}}, down = iCommandPlane_HOTAS_MIC_SwitchRight, up = iCommandPlane_HOTAS_MIC_SwitchOff, name = _('HOTAS MIC Switch Forward'), category = _('HOTAS')},

 

Here is a screenshot which should be easier to read:

I've been struggling for about eight days now trying to fix the problem with not being able to control AI in the game. After an exchange of many emails the tech says my mic assignments are over-riding the default.

 

I have done the following:

Deleted the directory:

\Saved Games\DCS\Config\Input\A-10C

 

Ran DCS World Repair.

 

The mic assignments in the UI Controller screen and the default.lua file itself have not changed.

Delete/rename the offending files and then run the repair.

Repair fixed the problem. I now have full control over FLIGHT/ATC/AWACS/JTAC as I have in the past. I know I have not modified any files between when this all worked last and after a recent online update when this all broke. I'm pretty sure the update broke some unknown file.
